Forex social trading networks – a new Forex trend that picked up the speed in recent years. And why not, when the idea of being connected with other Forex traders on the network benefits everyone!
Forex social trading networks is a social environment that offers interaction between active Forex traders in real time.It allows quick communication, sharing of trading signals, auto-trading and synchronization of order executions between several accounts (between a signal provider and followers) and, of course, commercialization of own trading strategy through selling signal subscriptions to traders.
Social Forex trading offers significant benefits of sharing knowledge with others. Novice traders can follow more experienced traders,while the rest can simply select and subscribe to one of hundreds of Forex signal providers (traders who’s strategies have been showing good performance) and have their own trading adjusted and improved as well (at least that’s the plan).
Social trading networks started as independent projects, but nowadays Forex brokers are more and more interested in having their own trading networks available for their clients, since it provides extra features, among which the most desirable is interaction among traders which stimulates active trading.

Independent Social Trading Networks are networks that don’t belong to any particular broker. They run independently, however allow connecting existing trading accounts from different brokers into the network. This way traders can interact not only within the limited circle of clients from 1 broker, but rather with many traders who trade with different brokers.
